[RTTY] QYF refined

[W0MU Mike Fatchett]

How about the Expedition working RTTY from the start instead of trying 
to catch up at the end.  All these people are all worked up because they 
are going QRT soon.

When calling for EU don't work outside that area.  When calling for JA 
don't work EU?  If they can't find a target station in 7 kc's then move 
down and spread it out some more.

The guy today would hardly move.  He would stay at one freq and wait 
till a call would print.

If you aren't good at RTTY a major expedition is probably the worst 
place to attempt to learn hi!

I would like to think I know what I am doing and still managed a few 
bone headed moments while in J6.
